Ask HN: Any Developers enjoy the new MBP 15“?

2 pointstimemachiner2 comments

I recently bought one for development and am very impressed with it.

I've seen all day battery life unplugged during my work outside of the house which is 6-8 hour range. Even within that range it estimates I have 10+ hours of battery life left.

I love the display. Much better than my older MBP and am overall very satisfied with the purchase.

Wondering if any other devs/users like it as well?

I'm pleased with it.

At first I had some issues with it thinking my external display was a TV -- but now that I've taught it the difference between shit and Shinola, everything's good.

I'm stoked that the company bought me a new machine -- and I think it's pretty nice. My only complaint is that I wish they still made a 17" MBP. My eyes aren't what they used to be.

Apple hardware has fallen so far behind I've become a Hackintosh convert.

If you're paying for top of the line build quality, you shouldn't have to sacrifice for last-gen hardware for the sake to be 1mm thinner.
